This wonderful restaurant with vibrant ambiance is not just an ordinary restaurant. Its a revolutionary concept curated by Chef and Owner Albana Khatri.

What do you expect at a QSR outlet? Yummy delicious fast food right? Yes even Umraan does it, but with an additional attribute called healthy. Yes complete healthy food. I was amazed with Chef's concept to bring totally healthy food in a quick way. No MSG, artificial flavors, colors. Some items are slow cooked for a couple hours to give that perfect touch while maintaining the healthy quotient.

Read the menu once and you ll realize how different it is than other restaurants. Every food item is made with very less oil, without fats, excessive spices, from drinks to appetizers to mains to desserts everything is just mind blowing different.

Lets talk about the food we tasted :
1) Chicken Pataka : Our regular Chicken tikka but without cream,butter,curd. Usin arabic spices this roasted tikka is heavenly aromatic.

2) Videsi Chicken : Chicken in Barbeque sauce like spices, it tastes so good.

3) Yenna Chicken : Specially brought Spices, Herbs from Kundapur (a village in South) this is something very well balanced with spices and aroma.

4) Chicken Masti : Chicken Kebabs with color peppers, tastes like sausages but very healthy option as compared to sausages.

5) Twisted CT : Perfect Chicken tikka without oil.

6) Twisted RC : A complete different yet so wonderful Hummus made with Rajma and Garlic maintaining the real Hummus taste. Goes well with Crisp Toasted Bagel Bread.

7) Chicken Kofta Curry with Laccha Parantha : Again this Kofta is fat free, curry is butter and oil free. Laccha Parantha is made of Wheat flour so again its healthy. I wonder you will hate Laccha Parantha made by Maida by other hotels now.

8) Chicken Bhuna Biryani : This biryani cooked in Awadhi style maintaining it's aroma, flavors and healthy quotient. A bit dry but feels good while eating a healthy biryani right?

9) Wrap with base options Herb, Nachni, or Laccha : I mean this lady hasn't left a single loophole. Even in Wraps you have all the healthy options. I ate herb base wrap with Videsi Chicken stuffing. Mint sauce and Chicken were perfect and the herb wrap base was perfect and smooth.

10) Berry Rasmalai : Desi Rasmalai goes more healthy. Berry and the healthiest milk made Rasmlai is a perfect dessert and I am sure this must be hot selling. #Personally my favorite#

11) Imli Mojito : Yes the regular Mojito goes totally Desi and healthy. Tamarind and Mint muddled in damrera sugar and cold water. Perfect flavors of mint and tamarind.

12) Fruit Lemonade : #My favorite# A regular Lemonade with crushed fruits (seasonal fruits) I got the strawberry one. Totally unexpected taste I just loved it.

13) Pataka Cola : This one will blow your mind! Cola with Jaljeera, Mint, Chillies will burst flavors once you sip. It changes the flavors while gulping down.

I missed the Laalgulla (Red Velvet Rasgulla) so probably next time a full meal at Umraan will be accompanied by Laalgulla.

Overall let me sum it up, this is a healthy QSR outlet that will fulfill everyone's hunger pangs without worrying their health issues.
By the way Umraan means prosperity in Arabic, I wish Albana and Team they prosper and be wealthy while making us all healthy.
